BlueOptics SFP28-AOC-25M-CN-BO SFP28 AOC-kabel, 25 m, stekker-stekker, mintkleur

BlueOptics SFP28-AOC-25M-CN-BO is a 25 m active optical cable (AOC) with SFP28 connectors on both ends in a mint colour finish. Designed for high-speed interconnects, the cable integrates optical transmitter and receiver elements in each connector to carry multimode optical signals over 25 meters. The compact, pluggable SFP28 form factor provides electrical isolation and supports low-latency links between switches, servers and storage devices in data center and rack environments. The cable is lightweight at 0.15 kg and intended for direct device-to-device connections where SFP28 ports are available.

Advantages

The AOC design eliminates the need for separate transceivers and patch cords while offering a consistent 25G-capable physical link in a single assembly. Built to SFP28 form-factor compatibility, the cable provides a small footprint and straightforward hot-pluggable operation. Optical transmission reduces susceptibility to electromagnetic interference and provides electrical isolation between connected devices. The mint-coloured jacket helps with visual identification in crowded cabling runs.

Suitable for

• Direct server-to-switch or switch-to-switch connections over 25 m using SFP28 ports
• High-speed Ethernet links up to 25 Gbit/s in data centre top-of-rack or aggregation layers
• Short-reach multimode fiber interconnects where electrical isolation and low latency are required
• Environments requiring colour-coded cabling for easier identification and management

Key specifications

• Cable length: 25 m
• Connectors: SFP28 to SFP28 (male-to-male)
• Data rate support: up to 25 Gbit/s
• Transmission medium: active optical cable with multimode optical transceivers integrated in connectors
• Colour: mint
• Weight: 0.15 kg

How to use

Ensure both devices have SFP28-compatible ports and that their firmware or hardware supports AOC connections. Power down or hot-swap according to your equipment guidelines, then insert each SFP28 connector into the corresponding port until it latches. Verify link status and negotiate the desired speed and protocol (for example, 25G Ethernet) via your network equipment management interface. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and secure it in the rack or cable management to prevent strain on connectors.

Recommendations

Do not exceed the specified bend radius of the cable and avoid mechanical stress on connectors. Use the mint-coloured jacket to separate this 25G link from other cabling, and confirm compatibility with your switch or server vendor if hardware or software vendor-lock checks are enforced.
